Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6v + 12b = 504 eq1
2v + 5b = 204 eq2
6v + 15b = 612 eq2 times 3
0 -3b = 504 - 612 subtraction of the two bolded eqs
-3b = -108 solve for b
b = 36
Another way to solve the problem
6v + 12b = 504 I would eliminate the v term by multiplying the bottom
2v + 5b = 204 equation by -3 on BOTH sides and then add the two eqs
2v + 5b = 204
-3(2v + 5b) = -3(204)
-6v - 15b = -612
6v + 12b = 504
-6v - 15b = -612 add the like terms
(6v + (-6v)) + (12b + (-15b) = 504 + (-612)
(6v -6v)) + (12b - 15b) = 504 - 612)
0 + -3b = - 108 solve for b divide both sides by -3
b = -108/-3
b = 36
use eq 2v + 5b = 204 to solve for v and knowing b = 36
2v + 5b = 204 b=36
2v + 5(36) = 204 substract 5 times 36 from both sides
2v = 204 - 180
v = 24 / 2
v = 12
NOW CHECK the values for b and v using the OTHER eq
6v + 12b = 504
6(12) + 12(36) = 504
72 + 432 = 504
504 = 504 IT CHECKS
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
40 % of 60 = 24
60-24=36
His total load is 4*125 + 2*75 + 2*50, which is 750
now, is that 750 95% of 800?
well 95% of anything is 95/100 * anything
thus, 95% of 800 is 95/100 * 800 or 0.95 * 800
now, is that less than more or equals to 750? if it's, then he's golden, because his load is less or equals to 95% of 800, if not, then he needs to cut down some
Answer:
35 questions
Step-by-step explanation:
First find out how many questions he got right setting up an equation.
1)3x=84.
The variable 'x' is the answers he got correct. The next step would be to divide by 3 to get the x alone. Remember, whatever you do to one side is done to the other so divide 84 by three as well
2) 3x÷3 = x.
84÷3=28.
which leads you to x=28.
Then, since he got 7 wrong, you would add the 7 to the 28 he got correct to get the final answer.
3) 28+7=35
another way you can do this is multiply numbers by three until you get to 84. The number you multiplied by is the amount he got correct, then add the correct and wrong ones together to get 35
